Heralds Celebrate 80th Anniversary

On May 29th, 2025, the Heralds of Harmony proudly marked a monumental milestone—80 years of musical excellence, camaraderie, and community impact. Founded in 1945, just months after the end of World War II, the Heralds have been a cornerstone of the Tampa Bay arts scene, preserving the uniquely American art form of barbershop harmony for generations.

To celebrate this historic occasion, the chorus gathered on the exact date of their founding, honoring their roots by displaying the original charter documents and paying tribute to decades of harmony and hard work. Current and former members, friends, and fans alike joined in to reflect on the legacy of performances, competitions, and community service that have shaped the chorus into the powerhouse it is today.

From national stages to local outreach, the Heralds have proven that their music—and their mission—only gets stronger with time. Here's to 80 years of ringing chords and lifelong friendships.
